The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

Chapter 321: Sword Master (Two chapters in one)

Just as Ecosela was still carefully savoring Ryan's words.

Suddenly, she felt the ground shake violently.

This made her look up suddenly!
Ryan, who was originally more than 20 meters away, now raised his lance horizontally and drew a silver straight line towards her. The speed was so fast that it seemed like he arrived in an instant!

In an instant, Ecosela was shocked and angry!
How could she not know that the other person had just spoken to her most likely to divert her attention and distract her.

But at this point, it was too late for her to cast powerful witchcraft, and she could only use her innate witchcraft to resist.

In an instant, a python transformed from black energy suddenly appeared in front of her, as if it was wrapped around a non-existent sphere. The black python used its thick body to resist Ryan's "armor-piercing attack"!
"Hey!!!"

In an instant, the lance and the black energy python at the collision point suddenly burst into a fierce friction sound!
A large piece suddenly disappeared from the body of the black energy python, and it was deeply sunken, but it was still not broken by the lance!

Seeing that the opponent's attack failed to break her innate magic 'Black Python Shield', Icosela showed an expression that it should be so, and a sneer.

At the same time, she immediately began to chant spells and cast magic. She wanted to teach the guy opposite her a lesson.

At this moment, Ryan felt an extremely strong sense of obstruction coming from the lance!

Seeing that Icosela did not retreat at all and started chanting spells in front of him, Ryan couldn't help but laugh!
Ryan took a deep breath, and then his neck swelled up like an angry king cobra.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, an invisible air wave roared out from Ryan's suddenly opened mouth!

It is the advanced sonic secret 'Dragon Roar' mixed with a small amount of dragon might!
This caught Ikosela off guard, and her spell was suddenly interrupted. The backlash of the witchcraft also caused her face to change immediately. She cursed inwardly: "Damn it! It's a sonic attack!"

At the same time, Ryan's right arm holding the lance suddenly expanded, and he actually pierced the lance through the python's defense. In an instant, the sharp tip of the lance pierced Ikosela's forehead!

This startled Ikosela, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he tiptoed and flew backwards instinctively!

Just when the tip of the lance was about to touch, a black film suddenly appeared on the surface of Ikosela's body, blocking the tip of the lance.

At this time, after being weakened by Icosela's defensive witchcraft, the power of the lance was greatly reduced, and the remaining power was not enough to penetrate the black film.

"Whizzing!"

From the body of Icosela covered in a black robe, two black snakes as thick as thighs suddenly sprang out from the collar of her neck and the hem of the robe, one above and one below, opening their bloody mouths and attacking Ryan in the face.

Ryan's eyes focused, and he immediately controlled two hardened platinum kite-shaped shields to resist.

"Boom! Boom!"

The giant snake was incredibly powerful. Although Ryan resisted in time and was not injured, this did hinder Ryan's lance pursuit, giving Icosela a little space.

This made Ryan secretly feel what a pity!

He was almost able to injure the opponent with one blow.

And from the brief fight just now, Ryan also realized that the opponent's strength level was even stronger than the High Priest Ganon of the Secret Snake Cult whom he had killed before.

However, Ryan is no longer the same person he was back then!
Ryan pointed his toes and the ground cracked like a spider web. He rushed towards Icosela again, as if he didn't want to give the other party any chance to breathe.

Ikosela was still in shock at this time, because although the opponent's attack just now did not hurt her, the instantaneous attack power exposed from it made her extremely alert.

Fortunately, she could feel that the opponent's attack power had not yet reached the level of a third-level crystallized wizard.

If she could free up her hands to cast the third-level witchcraft, it would be no problem for her to kill the opponent.

"Ok?"

Ikosela's expression changed again, because she saw a silver figure flash before her eyes, and the other party was like a thorn in her flesh, and entangled her again!
"This fighting style??"

"Fuck, how can this person look like a wizard? Nor does he look like a knight! He looks more like an assassin!"

Ecosela's evaluation of Ryan in her mind kept changing!
When she first saw Ryan's attire, she thought he was a knight. Later, she discovered that the witchcraft he cast was actually necromancy-related. She immediately believed that he must be a wizard!
But now, Icosela felt that the other party was like an assassin disguised as a wizard.

"Bang! Bang! Clang!"

For a moment, Icosela felt extremely frustrated.

Ryan was too fast, and he was holding a lance, a weapon with extremely strong penetrating power. Therefore, Icosela tried to use witchcraft to launch a counterattack several times, but was interrupted by Ryan's close combat like a thorn in his side.

Icosela did not dare to cast any powerful witchcraft that would take too long, because facing Ryan's lance secret, which could only withstand two "armor-piercing strikes" at most, most defensive witchcraft could not withstand it.

Her nickname is Crazy Snake, not Dead Snake!
If she really only knew how to attack madly and didn't know how to defend herself, she would have died countless times.

Logically speaking, even if Ryan had mastered the advanced secret of 'Armor Breaking Strike', he would never cause such a big trouble to a third-level crystal wizard like Icosela.

After all, a senior knight has mastered advanced secrets, and his attack power is almost on par with that of a senior first-level wizard.

However, what makes Ryan different is that he possesses the talents of 'Intermediate Giant Strength' and 'Advanced Steel Body', and his talents are also blessed by the blood of the dragon. This further enhances Ryan's attack power, and he can basically compete with the second-level liquefied wizard.

In addition, Ryan attacks without regard for physical strength!
Before performing the 'Armor Breaking Strike', he also performed the advanced secret technique 'Shadow Step' to increase his speed, which further enhanced the power of the lance that was specifically designed to break witchcraft shields.

With the combination of these factors, the power of Ryan's armor-piercing attack is comparable to that of a senior second-level liquefied wizard, or even better.

Even Icosela, a third-level crystal wizard, could not underestimate this level of attack power and needed to deal with it seriously.

At this moment, the sound of a large number of people running suddenly came from all around!

It turned out that the entire Earl Habsburg's mansion had been alarmed since Timshi screamed.

At this moment, dozens of guards were rushing out of the mansion towards the place where Icosela and Ryan were fighting.

"Don't come over here!" Ryan roared.

Ryan knew that based on the opponent's strength, they were probably below the level of a great knight, and as many as came, they would all die!

But it was too late. Seven or eight guards had already rushed to the vicinity of Icosela.

This made Ecosela smile charmingly, and the next second, "Swish, swish, swish"!
Her hood suddenly shattered into pieces, and dozens of thin black snakes, not much thicker than a thumb but four or five meters long or even longer, began to fly all over the sky!
When the guards saw the flying snake hair, they were stunned, but then they showed horror on their faces.

The next second, the snakes seemed to have found their target. Seven or eight long snakes "whooshed" and went straight behind the guard, biting the back of his head or neck.

Then, these guards began to twitch all over, their eyes rolled up, revealing large areas of white. No other color could be seen in their eyes except white.

Moreover, on the exposed surface of the armored body, one could see a sudden appearance of large patches of purple-blue net-like color, as if caused by the expansion of blood vessels.

When Ryan approached again, these guards attacked him like crazy, controlled by the snake-like hair behind their heads.

"Oh!"

A guard's knight's long sword chopped on the kite-shaped shield wrapped around Ryan's body, and the power was surprisingly extraordinary!
"Hey! Your strength has improved so much!"

It seems that the opponent's snake hair has injected some strange things into the guards, greatly increasing their strength.

At this time, Claire also rushed to the scene. When she saw the flying snake hair, she immediately realized something.

"Oh no! It's snake hair!"

As a top student who had studied at the Imperial College, she was very familiar with some of the cults' signature tricks.

The 'snake hair' of the legendary strongman of the Secret Snake Cult is one of the iconic abilities of this evil cult strongman.

"Ryan, be careful! The other party is a legendary master of the Secret Snake Cult!"

"The strength of those controlled by the snake hair will be greatly enhanced. They will not be afraid of life or death. Moreover, once they are controlled for more than one minute, they will not be able to recover and will become a walking corpse."

Ryan didn't take Claire's reminder seriously and just nodded quickly, but it shocked Icosela!

"What! You are Ryan!" Icosela's eyes widened, staring at Ryan, and said in shock.

After fighting for a long time, she finally realized that her opponent was the murderer who killed her brother!
As for why Ryan was not in Munster but appeared here, it was completely out of her mind. Now Ikosela only wanted to do one thing!

"You are the one who killed my brother Haldane! Go to hell!"

"Haldane?"

Seeing Ikosela rushing towards him like a madman, Ryan immediately recalled the young man from the Secret Snake Cult whom he had killed.

Is this the other person's sister?
However, before Ryan could think about it, he saw the seven or eight guards controlled by the snake hair being hit at him densely like hammers by the opponent with incredible force.

This made Ryan furious!

"Rather than letting these guards become zombies, it would be better for me to send them back to the arms of the goddess!"

Immediately, the lance in his hand instantly turned into a two-handed war hammer, and he struck the guards controlled by the snake-haired guards several times in succession!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Blood mist splattered everywhere, and pieces of corpses were thrown far away!

In less than two seconds, these guards controlled by the snake hair were no longer in human form.

One after another, transparent shadows emerged from the broken corpse controlled by the snake hair, dragging long tails of flames, circling around Ryan for several circles.

Unlike the souls of previous enemies, the faces of these phantoms showed relief, and they looked at Ryan with smiles, as if thanking Ryan for rescuing them from the control of the snake hair.

Then they rushed into Ryan's hammer.

But this scene made Ryan feel a little heavy.

"The ninth one!"

"But... the tenth portion! It's just enough!"

Ryan raised his head and looked at Ecosela intently.

"Go to hell!" "Black Snake Domain!"

Seeing that relying on the snake hair could not defeat Ryan, a strong aura suddenly burst out from Icosela's body. The area within dozens of meters around was suddenly filled with black air, as if it had become an independent space!

But in a flash, the black gas suddenly disappeared!

Hundreds of giant black pythons suddenly emerged from the ground and launched indiscriminate attacks on the surroundings.

"Ah! Ah!"

Many guards were immediately swallowed by the black python's bloody mouth, while some were entangled and strangled, screaming in pain!
For a moment, it was like entering a forbidden area for snakes!

And Ryan is naturally the key 'object of attention'!
At this moment, even though Ryan had a metal barrier and was protected by three constantly circling kite shields, the number of black pythons was too large. Some of them bypassed the defense of the shield and bit Ryan directly on his mithril carved plate armor!

As more and more black pythons appeared, soon the metal barrier held up by Ryan was entangled by dozens of giant pythons into a huge python ball, and was further squeezed!
"Kaka!"

Even though Ryan connected the three kite-shaped shields made of hardened refined gold into one piece, they were still squeezed and deformed under the huge force.

"Ryan!" Claire, who was standing by, saw this and her beautiful eyes suddenly widened as she exclaimed!

Without hesitation, Claire rushed towards Icosela from the side with a two-handed sword in hand, but was immediately blocked by the black python in the area.

"Chi! Chi!"

After slashing away several black pythons in succession, Claire was blocked by more and more black pythons, and for a moment, she was unable to rush in.

"Tsk, tsk, that's really touching." Icosela glanced at Claire, with a smug look on her face.

"Anyone bitten by my black python will die from the poison in less than a minute! Perhaps, I can be kind and let the two of you die together."

Hearing what Icosela said, Claire was so worried that she didn't have time to dodge and was suddenly hit in the abdomen by a python's tail. She flew backwards with a "bang"!
"is it?"

At this time, a deep male voice came from the huge black python ball!

Claire's face lit up with joy, while Icosela's expression changed, because this was exactly Ryan's voice!
"boom!!!"

I saw black python bodies flying all over the sky, and an incredibly strong figure walked out of them, holding a war hammer, with more than ten huge python heads hanging on his body.

But if you look closely, you can find that although these giant pythons have bitten through the mithril armor, they do not seem to have bitten into Ryan's skin.

At this moment, the few exposed areas of Ryan's skin were emitting a flickering silver-gray glow, flowing across the surface of his body like mercury.

What's more, strangely enough, as if due to the influence of the dragon's bloodline, the halo now vaguely looks like pieces of scales.

"I have met so many strong men, but no one can withstand my hammer!"

"Do you know what the Warhammer wizard's trump card is?"

"What?" Icosela was stunned, still trying to figure out what the Warhammer Wizard meant. Suddenly, she saw Ryan rushing towards her at a faster speed than at the beginning.

After the strong wind swept through, it left behind a row of afterimages!
In a flash, Ryan came to two or three meters in front of her, raised a dark two-handed war hammer, and smashed it down at her heavily!
Ikosela's heart was filled with alarm, but Ryan was too fast. She had no time to chant the spell or retreat. She could only use her innate witchcraft and transform into a snake!

In an instant, Ikosela's pupils shrank, and dense and fine scales appeared on his entire body surface. A giant python appeared again on his body to protect him.

Moreover, because she was in the 'Black Snake Field', the surrounding black pythons rushed towards her like moths to a flame, wrapping around her and protecting her!

It's too late, it's faster than that!

Ren's hammer has arrived!
"Bang!!!"

Instantly, Ikosela felt a tearing pain in her head, and then she felt as if she was hit head-on by a naval gun, and her whole body sank suddenly!

The dozens of black pythons that were entangled around turned into wisps of black mist in an instant!

"boom!"

Smoke and dust rose up, and gravel flew everywhere!
After the smoke cleared, they saw that where Ikosela had originally stood, a meteorite crater with a diameter of four or five meters had appeared.

At this moment, Icosela's arms seemed to have exploded at the elbows due to blocking, and the part below the elbows had disappeared, while his legs were bent in the opposite direction, with the soles of his feet facing the sky. His whole body was planted in the ground like a carrot, submerged up to the chest.

"You, your strength"

"puff!"

Ecosela vomited mouthfuls of blood!

"Don't be complacent, I haven't lost yet!"

Just as Icosela was performing some secret technique, Ryan took a step ahead and a black arc of light flashed!
"Snapped!!!"

Ecosela's pretty face was instantly smashed to pieces!
"Want to become that big snake?"

"Think of beauty!"

Ryan shook the hammer and threw the white jelly-like stuff on it onto the ground.

He also summed up some experience regarding the Secret Snake Cult.

The opponent's final trump card seems to be to transform into some kind of giant snake, but if the opponent can be killed directly in the instant before the transformation, it will naturally prevent the opponent's comeback plan.

Claire, who had just stood up, stared at the crater on the ground in amazement, and then looked at Ryan's sturdy body like a sculpture that was exposed because his mithril carved armor was broken.

"How on earth did he practice this? It's only been a short time and Ryan's strength has become much stronger!" Claire couldn't help but murmured in a low voice.

She remembered clearly that when Ryan fought against Ganon, the high priest of the Secret Snake Cult, the fight was even more difficult than this time.

However, this time the enemy is obviously stronger than Cannon, and is definitely a legendary master!

At this time, a group of guards gathered around, and they could see clearly under the cover of night that the tall figure standing with a two-handed warhammer in his hands was none other than Ryan!
"Lord Ryan!"

"It was Lord Ryan who killed the enemy!"

"It's still up to Lord Ryan to take action!"

"When did Lord Ryan return?"

For a moment, the guards seemed to have found their backbone and stepped forward to salute.

Ryan nodded, walked quickly to Claire's side, and helped her up.

It seemed that she had never been hugged by a man before, so Claire's body stiffened suddenly. Although she was knocked away, it was only a minor skin injury and she did not need any help at all.

But for some reason, when Claire saw Ryan coming to support her, she couldn't say no.

"Ryan, are you okay?" Claire said, touching the ends of her hair that were scattered on her forehead due to the battle.

"I'm fine. I'm tough and I'm not afraid. But how about you?"

"I'm fine too, thanks to you this time!"

"Your pants are torn, remember to change them." Ryan whispered in Claire's ear.

Ok?
Claire's beautiful eyes suddenly widened, and she turned her head to look behind her. As expected, when she was knocked away just now, her hunting pants had been scraped by something sharp, and now, a narrow cut more than ten centimeters long had been made on them.

The snow-white and elastic buttocks are faintly visible!

If you look closely, you can see the black
This immediately made Claire blush, and she finally realized why Ryan came forward to support her.

"Ryan, I'll go change!" After saying that, Claire, who always paid great attention to aristocratic manners, also 'ran away' for once!
Seeing this scene, Ryan couldn't help but laugh.

After seeing Claire walking away, Ryan suddenly realized something.

Just now, he kept hearing what seemed to be multiple system prompts.

When Ryan opened the system, he froze:
[Ding! The host's willpower has exceeded 10 points, triggering a special job transfer - Sword Master (Epic)! ]

【转职剑圣（史诗）前置条件为：一、意志10点以上；二、剑之信念；三、任意一门超凡剑术达到lv16以上；四、任意呼吸法lv16以上；五、力量45点以上，敏捷45点以上，体质45点以上.当前条件全部符合！】

[. All the prerequisites for changing to Sword Saint (Epic) are met. Yes/No, change to Sword Saint (Epic)? ]

[Warning: Once you choose to change your job to Swordmaster (Epic), your mental power will be solidified and converted into will attribute, which will conflict with the host's current Warhammer Wizard (Legendary) job's activated mental power. ]

[Warning: Changing to Swordmaster (Epic) will cause the Warhammer Wizard (Legend) career panel to disappear. This process is irreversible, so please decide carefully! ]

"Hmm? Sword Master?"

"Another epic career?"

"Huh, a warning?"

It was the second time that Ryan saw the word "warning" appear in the system prompt. He immediately checked it carefully.

"Hiss~Warhammer Wizard's career panel disappeared?"

"Doesn't that mean that the killer weapon 'Soul Shattering Shock' is gone? No! What's more serious is that the entire path to becoming a wizard is cut off!" Ryan was suddenly shocked.

"But this is a Sword Master! An epic class! It should be stronger than a Warhammer Wizard!"

"Wait! Why is it that 'King of Thousand Blades' also has an epic melee class panel, but there is no such situation as Sword Master?" Ryan immediately thought of a question.

Ryan quickly recalled the job transfer requirements for the 'King of Thousand Blades'. There was indeed no requirement for willpower. Compared to the 'Sword Master', the 'King of Thousand Blades' seemed to be pursuing pure physical improvement.

Of course, there are certain requirements for skills (secrets).

"Could it be that the 'King of Thousand Blades' follows the path of great strength and pursues a strong body, so it does not conflict with the path of a wizard?"

"And the Sword Saint chooses to integrate his personal will into the sword's faith, pursuing the unity of spirit and body, and the ultimate attack power. Is this why the path conflicts with the wizard?"

For a moment, Ryan seemed to understand something.
